THURSDAY THOUGHTS// Moving Out

As a young girl I never imaged getting engaged at 18 or be moving in with my fiancé at 19… but I wouldn’t change it for anything! This Sunday I am moving back to Oklahoma to live with my fiancé and attend college there.

Moving out at a young age is hard. You don’t have a steady job and you’re trying to get through school, but still pay your bills. Along with this comes the sadness with moving away from your family.

I have lived in 10+ houses throughout my life. To me, home isn’t a house it’s who’s in it. I am going to be four hours away from my home and it’s hard, but I am extremely grateful to have their support as well as Braden’s family in Oklahoma.

My moving out story was: getting married at 23, leaving Sicily and moving to the UK to live with my English husband. It happened way faster than the slow Sicilian rhythm of life, so I feel for my poor parents. I guess it might be hard for yours too.
